Notes upon Maine Plants. 
Astragalus Robbinsii, which Mr. Fernald gives in his recent 
catalogue was probably included from a specimen found in the 
Blake Herbarium, which is really A alpinus. 
Potamogeton mucronatus was. probably included from speci- 
mens collected about Orono, by Mr. Fernald. The specimens 
contributed by him to the College Herbarium, under the above 
name, are P, pusillus, L. 
Potomogeton rufescens, not included in Mr. Fernald’s cata- 
logue, has been collected by Miss Kate Furbish in Maine, and 
specimens are in her herbarium. 
Potamogeton pulcher was found in a package of pond- weeds 
in the Blake Herb., marked in the hand writing of Rev. Joseph 
Blake, as having been collected at Wells, Me. 
Nasturtium sylvestre, marked questionable in Mr. Fernald’s 
catalogue, has been collected by Miss Kate Furbish at Moosehead 
Lake, Me. 
Panicum agrostoides, was collected August, 1891, on gravelly 
shores of Chemo Pond, Bradley, Me., by Mr. F. P. Briggs. 
Litorella lacustris was collected August, 1891, submer ged in 
shallow water on the sandy shores of Chemo Pond, Bradley, Me.

Eaton expresses the same opinion, which was apparently shared 
by the late Dr. Sereno Watson. A very careful study of a 
good series of specimens from the Carboniferous Sandstone Blufts 
of the Cumberland Mountains, in the Sequachee Valley, Marion 
County, Tennessee, has convinced me that Asplenium Bradleyi, 
has no close affinity with either. It would seem to be most 
nearly allied to A. viride, Huds.; indeed, plants trom dark, cold
